Had a relationship with Catherine Bleynie, ex-wife of Didier Pironi (1984-1986).
In 1981 he directed his first film, Pour la peau d'un flic (1981). Delon was a sensation early in his career; he came to embody the young, energetic, often morally corrupted man. With his breathtaking good looks he was also destined to play tender lovers and romantic heroes, and he was a French embodiment of the type created in America by James Dean.
Accepted starring role in Zorro (1975) to please his son Anthony Delon, who was a child at the time.
In 1970 he had a huge success in the bloodstained Borsalino (1970)--which he also produced--playing a small-time gangster in the 1930s who, with Jean-Paul Belmondo, becomes king of the Marseilles underworld. Delon later won critical acclaim for his roles, against type, in Joseph Losey's Mr.
In 1968 he found himself involved in murder, drug and sex scandal that indirectly implicated major politicians and show-business personalities, but he was eventually cleared of all charges.

In 1964 he formed his own production company, Delbeau Productions, and he produced a short film directed by Guy Gilles.
After several other films in Italy, Delon returned to the criminal genre with Jean Gabin in Any Number Can Win (1963). This work, a classic example of the genre, was distinguished not only by a soundly worked-out screenplay, but also by the careful production and the excellent performances of both Delon and Gabin.
In 1961 he appeared on the stage in "'Tis a Pity She's a Whore", directed by Visconti, in Paris.
Selznick, and in 1960 he received international recognition for his role in Luchino Visconti's Rocco and His Brothers (1960).
In the late 1960s he formed another company. Adel Film, and the next year he began producing features.
His first outstanding success came with the role of the parasite Tom Ripley in 'Rene Clement''s sun-drenched thriller Purple Noon (1960). Delon presented a psychological portrait of a murderous young cynic who attempts to take on the identity of his victim.
A totally different role was offered to him by Visconti in Rocco and His Brothers (1960). In this film Delon plays the devoted Rocco, who accepts the greatest sacrifices to save his shiftless brother Simon.
It was only in the late 1960s that the sleek and lethal Delon came to epitomize the calm, psychopathic hoodlum, staring into the camera like a cat assessing a mouse.
He decided to try an acting career and in 1957 made his film debut in Yves Allégret's Quand la femme s'en mêle (1957). He declined an offer of a contract from producer David O.
